Issue with Engine Start on FSR M500 in MSFS 2024

Hi everyone,

I’m having an issue starting the FSR M500 in MSFS 2024. When I press the “Push Start” button, it lights up for half a second and immediately turns off. I hear a brief start-up sound, but it cuts out just as quickly.

Interestingly, if I hold the “Push Start” button, the engine continues to spool until I release it, but it never starts properly.

Here’s what I’ve tried so far:

-Reinstalled MSFS 2024** completely.
-Deactivated and reactivated the aircraft.
-Checked for damage via the tablet and overhauled everything just in case.
-Verified that all circuit breakers are pushed in
-Double-checked keybinds to ensure no conflicts with engine start functions.

Despite all this, I can’t seem to resolve the issue and am currently out of ideas. Has anyone experienced something similar or knows what else I could try?

Thanks in advance for your help!

You have just forgotten to remove the engine cover.

Sorry, my mistake. I misunderstood a step in the start-up procedure…

It works now!
